It seems like Trump is genuinely trying to destroy the Canadian economy and might even be serious that the goal is forcibly annexing Canada. He said he’s “not expecting any concessions”(?) and now wants to “get rid of that artificially drawn” border between the two countries.

These tariffs are predicated on a nonexistent fentanyl influx from Canada to the U.S. People I know in Ottawa are genuinely alarmed and think this is for real.

Yea, using it to declare a national emergency and send troops to the border.

Fentanyl is just a lie to make it a 'national security concern' so that it can be an order instead of going through Congress like these things normally would. He doesn't trust the GOP to do the things he wants to do.
